      Levels of vitamin C, β-carotene and minerals in camu-camu cultivated in different environments.
    • نبذة مختصرة :
      The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of crop type (dry and flooded environment) on vitamin C, β-carotene and minerals (calcium, magnesium, sulfur, zinc, iron, manganese, copper, boron, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium), of camucamu content. Vitamins were determined by high performance liquid chromatography, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese and iron by atomic absorption spectrometry, potassium by flame photometry and phosphorous, boron and sulfur by spectrophotometry in wave lengths 725 and 420nm, respectively. Fruit grown in a dry environment showed higher (P<0.05) vitamin C content (13756.79mg 100g-1/dry weight) and generally higher mineral content (calcium, magnesium, sulfur, iron, copper, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium). β-carotene content was not influenced (P>0.05) by different environments.

    • نبذة مختصرة :
      O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência do tipo de cultivo (ambiente seco e alagado) sobre o teor de vitamina C, β-caroteno e minerais (cálcio, magnésio, enxofre, zinco, ferro, manganês, cobre, boro, nitrogênio, fósforo e potássio) de camucamu. As vitaminas citadas foram determinadas por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência, enquanto que os minerais cálcio, magnésio, zinco, cobre, manganês e ferro por espectrometria de absorção atômica, o potássio por fotometria de chama e o fósforo, boro e enxofre por espectrofotometria, nos comprimentos de onda 725 e 420nm, respectivamente. O fruto cultivado em ambiente seco apresentou maior (P<0,05) teor de vitamina C (13.756,79mg 100g-1/peso seco) e da maioria dos minerais investigados (cálcio, magnésio, enxofre, ferro, cobre, nitrogênio, fósforo e potássio). Os teores de β-caroteno não variaram (P>0,05) em função dos diferentes ambientes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
